When I was a tot my nana removed her teeth right in front of me. I was deeply impressed. I asked her how she did it. She said it was a secret then she did it again and laughed at my reaction. I went around asking everybody if they could remove their teeth. Few could. Nobody would reveal how it was done. Years elapsed with me pulling on my teeth searching for the secret lever that would disengage the whole set. I thought it was something like the door behind the bookshelf in the castle library where you pulled on the sconce and the door swung open. Finally, finally someone explained to me that I had to have all my real teeth pulled before fake ones could be provided and even then it still seemed like a good idea. Why not just pull them all and get an excellent replacement? A dental hygenist had to carefully explain to me why false teeth are the big fail.

South Korean political assemblies are something to watch. They can turn into major dust-ups really quick. I'll bet that after this guy jammed his teeth back in, it was seen as an offense to the opposition and a brawl began.

Losing your teeth is a common dream, I am told. I have to tell you that I was mighty happy to hear that, since it was surely common to me, and let me tell you...this was more my nightmare... until I woke up, happy to find them just where I left them when I went to sleep. IN MY MOUTH!

After I got my two front teeth broken (not in a fight but through mindless pebble throwing one summer day at the beach), I had a recurring dream for quite a few years that I was at the bottom of an escalator and saw my two front teeth come down on one of the steps.

I didn't know it was common to have teeth (or lack thereof) dreams, so am happy to know this.
